Don’t miss this 1946 Comedy Classic From the author of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes!
Directed by Scott Alan Evans
With Mary Bacon, Tom Berklund, Hanna Cheek, Nora Chester, Todd Gearhart, Darrie Lawrence, Victoria Mack, Joseph Masi, Anderson Matthews, Ron McClary, James Prendergast, Lesley Shires, Joe Tippett, Margot White and Karen Ziemba
From the playwright of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes comes Happy Birthday, a sparkling and effervescent gem from 1946. Follow mild-mannered librarian Addie Bemis as she discovers love and vitality through an enchanted evening at a dodgy Newark cocktail lounge. With each round of drinks, the bar comes alive; the gin bottles glow, the cash register sings and the vibrant locals overflow with spirit. Addie learns to put down the books, pick up a glass and leave her cautious lifestyle behind.
